Single Correct Question

Q-1: Which statement correctly describes the synthesis and properties of

Grignard reagents?
(a) The synthesis of a Grignard reagent using an acetal-functionalized alkyl
halide is feasible without any reaction of the acetal group during the process.
(b) Aryl halides such as bromobenzene cannot react with magnesium to form
Grignard reagents due to their aromatic stability.
(c) Grignard reagents can be safely synthesized in the presence of functional
groups such as aldehydes and ketones, which do not interfere with their
reactivity.
(d) Methylmagnesium iodide is synthesized using diethyl ether because this
solvent stabilizes the Grignard reagent by forming a coordination complex
with magnesium.

Single Correct Question

Q-2: In the synthesis of a Grignard reagent, magnesium is inserted into a
carbon-halogen bond. Which of the following best explains the underlying
mechanism and characteristics of this reaction?
(a) The reaction proceeds via a reduction mechanism where magnesium
donates electrons to the carbon adjacent to the halogen, resulting in the
formation of Mg(I).
(b) This reaction is an example of oxidative addition, where magnesium
transitions from an oxidation state of 0 to II, and the final product is stabilized
by complexing with ether.
(c) The mechanism involves the transfer of a halogen atom from the organic
substrate to magnesium, creating a simple ionic bond between magnesium
and carbon.
(d) Magnesium undergoes a coordination process with the halogen, forming
a stable hexacoordinate complex that decomposes to yield the Grignard
reagent.
